How to flash device driver binaries? Fix Pixel Mic/Audio issues?

I want to know how do I flash any if the files found on Google's developer site. (https://developers.google.com/android/drivers#sailfish)
It gives *.tgz files.
The reason for this is that my pixel has been cursed with the dreaded mic issue. I hope that flashing a driver image could help restore some functionality. It has now even spread to my speakers, the phone can't produce audio and videos and audio don't play unless through a Bluetooth device. AUX is not functional.
First it was just the mic giving issues and I good just reboot the phone and it would work again for some time. But now rebooting does nothing and now I can't even hear sound to play a video or game. Please help.
Just to give more description I want a way either via fastboot or adb or through the Recovery to install these files, if possible. Would it solve the issue?
Other issues include not being able to swipe to answer calls and the phone freezes if I do. Apps crash sometimes if they require audio output.

Same issue here (Searching for a used dead phone - 2017 manufactured, maybe screen cracked, body damage etc. So that I can replace the mobo as most of them say this is the way to fix it).
I saw some comments in Google forums that ''Android P beta builds'' fixed the issue for some. Wanted to try that, but I am not able to find beta links (As beta is over)
Installing drivers is worth a try.....Even I would like to know

So anybody has any ideas yet? Anything software wise at all?

Try flashing some custom roms and kernels

**FIX** unlock BL, twrp3231, pixeldust 9.0 ROM, magisk 18.1
Hey friends I was having same issue after stock to 9.0 update (with all patches up to today 3-9-19) on my pixel, first it wouldn't read a Sim and I unlocked the bootloader and used adb to fix that by resetting the modems, then less than 24 hours later it dropped the mic and then sound all together (probably with one of the first updates).
So I updated the phone completely and still no mic no audio. Checked xda and only found this thread. Tried 4 times to download the Google fix and every time it failed so I can't say if the adb sideload fix works but I had already prepped the twrp room and magisk files so I proceeded with that after 24 hours and no solution I could find.
Much to my satisfaction as soon as the rom was loaded (pre magisk) i heard audio. Continued to root and came out with sound and mic and mobile data finally! Pixeldust is very nice so far, snappy and lots of options though maybe a more mellow graphic designer for the stock wallpaper is called for!

Worth to install LineageOS 16.0 on T5 ?

Hi,
Those who installed LineageOS on T5, could you please share your experience ?
I noted from few comments on this forum:
5GHz Wifi is not working but 2.4 GHz is working fine
disable HW overlays in the dev options to remove blur
disable AudioFX to correct sound
Is there any other prooblem ? What about bluetooth, camera, GPS, gapps ?
Any feedback will be appreciated

I'm the one who said it didn't work on 5GHz wifi, it is working.
I had to wait several minutes until my AP appeared, once I connected for the first time it did not give me any problem.
Also something like this happened when starting LineageOS for the first time, it did not connect neither in 2.4 nor in 5 but waiting it worked.
After disabling AudioFX I installed Eqfy Equalizer which works fine.
The camera app is not working, a white line appears in the middle of the screen and there are no photo options or anything.
Since I don't use it to take photos, I have not tried more but I suppose that with some other camera app it should work.
Not tested bluetooth or GPS for now.
On the other hand, the tablet works more fluidly and you have more free space.
In the absence of trying more things, for now I'm sticking with LineageOS.

Thanks for your feedback.
I have flashed LienageOS 16, and have patched RAMDISK.IMG to install Magisk.
It looks OK, I like it so far. There are only two issues:
* Camera is not working
* I have only 2,4Ghz WiFi (which btw is working fine), but I do not see 5,0 GHz network in my list
GPS, bluetooth, sound, image,...everything seems working OK, but I didn't check in details.
Despite those two issues I will stay with LineageOS. I prefer it one hundred times over EMUI. And for camera, which btw is not very important to me neither, I will probably find a fix one day.

From time to time your 5GHz AP may appear, you can connect but then it disappears again.
Yesterday I checked, I thought it was connected in 5GHz but no, the connection was in 2.4
I confirm that the Wifi in 5GHz does not work.

I have sorted it out.
For WiFi, I changed the channel on my router, put it at 44, and now the 5,0 Ghz Wifi is visible and I can connect.
For camera, I have found a Gcam which works OK, it is "GC_4.1.006.126161292-41003513.apk", easy to find on XDA.
So now I have LineageOS fully working. For the time being everything is fast and stable.

I thik it is related to router. On my router, in settings, the choice of channel was set to automatic, I put it to 44 and it is visible, and the connection is fast and stable. For some reason the tablet doesn't see higher frequencies.

I'm going to take a look to Gcam, I've tested a couple of cam apps but not working.
Now I'm using channel 56 but previously I tested other channels, maybe the day it worked I was using a lower one, will test too.
Thanks a lot.

Hello again, I have changed the channel to 44 and for now it works fine.
The Gcam is not working for me, It tells me that it cannot find the camera and closes.

Hello. If this can be of any help: the Gcam which I installed, I found it on this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p20/themes/google-camera-huawei-p20-kirin-devices-t3882198
It is : Google Camera v4.1.006.126161292, in the first post, section OTHER AVAILABLE APKs.
Maybe we’re not using the same version.
After flashing LineageOS, I found that I had two cameras : HwCamera2.apk 8.0.0.200 which I think is Huawei camera, and Camera2.apk 2.0.002. First one was crashing immediately, the second one didn’t work with a white line in the middle. Now I have first one disabled, second one is still there but useless. And third one is the one above which is OK.

Has anyone had any luck with Netflix?
I tried LineageOS yesterday and was unable to install Netflix from the play store, likely because it said I was uncertified. I was however able to download and side load Netflix, which initially appeared to resolve the issue, however any attempt to play content resulted in a 5.10 error. From what I can tell, this appears to be something to do with DRM, however the few potential solutions I've found using Magisk didn't help resolve the situation, and I've ended up reverting to Emui
Aside from Netflix, I didn't come across any other issues while testing. Unfortunately for me, Netflix was the main reason for getting this tablet in the first place, my old 3rd Gen iPad would have been more than adequate for my needs other wise

In order to get Netflix work, I installed one older versions found on apkmirror. I picked up randomly 6.21.0. I installed also liboemcrypto_disabler (even though I do not know if it was necessary), and in addition of that it is hidden in Magisk. It is working, I do not know how to check the quality, but I guess it is 720p.

Why TWRP needed why not to flash directly from stock recovery...

If you want to install LineageOS, the TWRP is not needed. You flash LineageOS via fastbot. In fact, it is better not to mess with TWRP, officially it is not supported by OpenKirin ROM's.

I also thought so but it's ok I have LineageOS installed with OpenCamera everythink seems to be working fine even LTE is there 16.1 version available ?
and also where can I get stock recovery if I need it, is it available for download anywhere ? or after LineageOS instalation it also installs stock recovery ?

If you want go to stock recovery again, On OpenKirin site there are comprehensive guides, under section Support, about where to find stock EMUI firmware, and how to extract and flash stock recovery image.
I do not think that LineageOS will install stock recovery, if you had TWRP before LineageOS installation, most likely it is still there. You may check it yourself : Vol Down + Power on boot.

I've just tried LineageOS build 6 on my AGS2-W09 and the camera seems to work ok now.
Had to install OpenCamera and set the all permissions, clear storage for this app and on the next run it can finally save the aquired photo.
The 5Ghz WiFi works with no problems (my router selected channel n.60)
As for audio: there is a glitch when device is booting, might want to not wear headphones during a reboot ☺
Haven't tried disabling AudioFX or installing Viper4Android as I am rolling back to stock firmware.
Netflix:
I think I konw why Netflix is not working: I have no IMEI with this OS.
UPDATE: IMEI should not matter on this device as it has no network.
I had tried the Netflix 6.21.0 version mentioned here and it gives me the same "Device failure occurred 501.-1006" error.
Then I've installed Kodi with a Netflix addon and it gives me: "It was not possible to get data from Widevine CryptoSession. Your system is not Widevine certified".
It is pretty clear that the LineageOS 16 build 6 (lineage-16.0-20201019-emui8-gapps.img) has no Widewine libraries installed.
Other than this the OS is very responsive, unfortunately I have to rollback because of this.

I am using this tablet for Netflix and prime on stock emui.
I really want to upgrade to custom ROM but no polished ROM anywhere!

guys how you have managed to pull boot.img from the device?
can anyone guide me through?
I have successfully managed to flash LineageOS latest build on MediaPad T5

call recording with Pixel 4A & Android 11

Call recording is important enough for me that I've stuck with a Samsung S5 for the last five years now solely to ensure all my calls are recorded. Sadly this phone is close to dying and I was interested in the Pixel 4A.
On the ACR reddit page it mentions that true two-way-call-recording from the audio source should be possible on Android 11 by rooting the phone and installing something called the Magisk repo with the “callrecorder-skvalex” module. I'm just looking for reassurance that this will work with the Pixel 4A before I buy it please.
Also, other than voiding the warranty is there any issues that arise with rooting your phone? Are you still able to download apps from the google play store with a rooted phone?
edit: I would be buying the UK version if that makes a difference.

Rooting your phone will make your phone less secure but as long as you use common sense when it comes to the apps and modules you install you should be fine. Google Pay will not work on a rooted phone (unless you spoof safetynet), but you will keep all google play functionality. Ive noticed that netflix disappears from Google Play when your phone is rooted, but you can just download it from a mirror site or the Aurora Store.
I havent personally used the module you mentioned, so i cant comment on whether or not itll work. And of course unlocking the bootloader will factory reset your device.

Use the standard patching of boot.img then boot it and direct install of magisk. Google hosts their own factory images where you can get the boot image.

I'm in the same exact boat as the OP. Galaxy S5, trying to find a phone to maintain call recording. Am trying a G950F first, but so far not looking good. Tmobile SIM in it to undo RMM=Prenormal and cell signal is terrible. 1 to 0 bars, -115dBm LTE signal (-120dBm being the 'worst' as I've learned). So considering the Pixel 4a despite wanting more storage than 128gb. Would prefer OnePlus except the size is to...not something I want to try to fit in my pockets, despite having large hands that would like a larger phone.
Very interested in hearing peoples rooting experiences on Pixel 4a and call recording functionality.

I'm coming from an S7 myself. My 4a has Android 11 installed and with the Callrecorder app from Skvalex + the corresponding Magisk module, call recording worked perfectly. After thinking how many times I actually needed the recorded call on my old S7, I decided to get rid of the call recording app.

Latest version of Boldbeast Recorder with their Magisk module works perfect

I am sad to report that skyvalex call recorder does not record calls on my new pixel 4a 5G and I just emailed the developer about it. It used to work on my pixel 3a with android 10.
The program runs and creates audio files of the expected length, but when you play them back, there is no audio. And, yes, my phone is rooted with magisk and has the skyvalex magisk module installed. I suspect that something has changed in android 11 that is keeping it from capturing the audio.
I shall now try boldbeast since beeshyams says it works for him.

Thank you for sharing your experience. I'm expecting delivery of a 4a 5g and want calling recording. So I'm hopeful that you making Skyvalex aware might accelerate the development of a fix.
Also, I don't know if this will be of help, but in my research last year I encountered this comment on an XDA article (thank goodness I bookmarked things!):
" Lexxior • 8 months ago • edited
It still works on Pie and Q if you have root. Just install app systemizer from Magisk and turn your desired call recorder into a system app. I have been using ACR for months this way and it works flawlessly."
https://www.xda-developers.com/android-11-call-recording/#comment
maybe if you can't find a app to work with root systemizing will still work well on Android 11 as well.
Edit: did some more searching around, came across an interesting post on BoldBeast. last post in thread by Admin:
https://www.boldbeast.com/forum/top...issions-for-android-11-for-pixel-2-xl-p2.html
apparently latest version of boldbeast should work fine on Android 11 according to developer.

Aha! The skyvalex developer figured it out after I contacted him and sent logs! The problem was that I was connected to wifi and so the phone was using VoLTE, or VoIP, or Wi-Fi for calling. None of these can be recorded - only calls using the phone network.. So I turned off wifi and then the calls were properly recorded on the 4a 5G using skyvalex call recorder with the magisk module. I am happy that I can get high quality phone call recording again.
This limitation is caused by android, not the app and is documented in the faq here: https://callrecorder.skvalex.com/faq I checked and the boldbeast app has the same limitation: Only normal calls can be recorded, wifi calls can't be recorded no matter what recorder you are using, so if your phone supports the wifi call feature please disable it.
I am going to create a simple tasker scene that will turn off wifi whenever I place or answer a phone call - I think that may solve the problem for me. If you get empty recording files, try turning off wifi before starting your call and tell us what you find.

Oh, I forgot to mention that I found out through some google searches that you can also record phone calls by using the built-in screen recorder BUT you do have to have speakerphone on or it won't hear the person on the other end.
Not an ideal method as it records not only the audio but also whatever is happening on the screen but it could be useful in a pinch. To make it easier to access, you can drag the Screen Record icon to the first page of the Android Quick Settings. I used this method a couple of times before the dev helped me get skyvalex working again by turning off wifi. The resulting files are bigger than you would like because they include a video of the screen but you could always extract the audio only if you wanted/needed to.

Android 12 DP1 anyone?

Anyone flash it?
What's working and what's not list can go here as well as discussion.
I'm gonna wait till Betas but would love to see some screenshots and here some impressions.

For those interested?
First preview of Android 12
News and insights on the Android platform, developer tools, and events.

Would be nice to know if Magisk Canary is working with the Developer Preview (on Pixel 5).

working pretty well as a DP so far. i dont believe canary is working yet, as it throws a boot error when you flash a patched image, yet you can fastboot boot a patched image.

Curious about 5G and eSim. Have you tested either?

I've got a nice long 3 day weekend, starting now. So I'm going to give this a go and run it through its paces to test 5G, Wifi speeds, Bluetooth connectivity with watch/headphones/car, smart home control, notifications, various apps I frequently use etc.
Will report back soon.

No 5g in my area, and my Verizon anyways doesn't use esim.

Initial thoughts...
No issues discovered, yet.
- Wifi speeds are on par with the February Android 11 build (see screenshot)
- T-Mobile 5G speeds (Boulder, CO) are also on par with what I was previously seeing (see screenshot)
- No issues sending/receiving texts/phone calls/Emails/Slack messages
- Bluetooth connection and functionality with my Galaxy Buds and Galaxy Watch Active2 are solid
- Google Smart Home device controls are working (HUE lights, Nest cameras, Google Home Hubs, Nest thermostat etc.)
- Camera quality for photos & videos don't appear degraded
- No noticeable stuttering or hiccups (yet)
Still need to test:
- Android Auto
- Battery life
- Longer term snappiness/smoothness (this tends to degrade over 1-3 days on previous developer previews I've tested)
Side notes:
- I was able to enable the developer flag for the new One-Handed Settings UI but I'm still trying to track down the flag to enable the new larger brightness slider layout.
- Possibly a placebo but notifications tones are much louder/crisper than they were on Android 11 (even at the same volume slider setting). This was a persistent annoyance I had with Android 11 that I attributed to the new speaker setup of the Pixel 5 vs my previous Pixel 4.

Do you did new install or updated ?

@sn0warmy Thanks, great review. Boulder 5g sucks. Denver by Lodo has the high speed one and some other areas nearby. I'm really wondering if we will get eSim + physical sim and 5G. As of now, even though there is a commit that has been merged, we only get 4G if we use both sims. It's obviously not a hardware limitation and I'm not sure why it hasn't been pulled into a monthly other than they are waiting for 12 to enable it.

38mbps is plenty fast for me when I'm away from the house. Though, I will say that 5G signal in this area is definitely hit or miss. I often find my signal falling back to LTE when I'm out and about.
I'm sure it will improve, over time.

Finally managed to flash magisk to pixel5....
However I am only able to boot the patched image (fastboot boot boot.img), if I tried to flash the image(fastboot flash boot boot.img) it won't boot saying "failed to load/verify boot images" which means I lose magisk every time I reboot.
I am fine with that although it's not perfect.
BTW exposed doesn't seem to work for now and the safetynet-fix module is bricking my device.

I ran into my first bug. If I try to change the notification tone in any app other than 'Phone', notification settings force closes. So I'm stuck with all the default notification tones for everything except the system wide default notification tone and ringtone.

Yeah 38 is very decent. Have you tried it with 4G for comparison? I have dual sim so I only get 4G unless I temporarily disable a sim. When I test the 4G is faster. I agree, it will improve once they start rolling out mmWave.

All functions of Android Auto confirmed working.

flashed and running for me.. 5G working on Verion. I updated (no clean wipe).
Battery may be a tad worse but that's because I'm used to being rooted and optimized.
Havent come across any hard crashes and reboots. I'm making an install video.. then later one on features, sharing experience (after using it for a while as my daily)

Tried dp1 earlier today. Found 1 bug I can't stand which is media playback won't hear in my Pixel Buds 2, I guess it'll be the same with other bluetooth earbuds?
Tried rebooting the phone to see if it resolves it, no. Tried also forget the Buds and redo pairing still the same. I can hear notifications fine but media playback, no. Just silence.
So flashed back to Feb 2021 public build.

Hmm where did I do wrong here. I even flashed dp1 from flash.android.com site, that would definitely guarantee perfect flash.

How To Guide GSI / Treble on S22 Ultra Exynos

I've spend some days with testing GSI on my device. It's now my daily driver. Here's a small guide:
1. making a clean install (Odin) and unlock the bootloader
2. flash TWRP as recommended
3. best ROM I've found is SuperiorOS_v414-arm64-bgS-slim-secure_20220611
(https://github.com/phhusson/treble_experimentations/wiki/Generic-System-Image-(GSI)-list)
In PixelExperience the fingerprint scanner is not working and with CherishOS I had some issues
4. I've used GSI-Flasher to flash the image in twrp (https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...ung-galaxy-a51-super-partition-image.4216083/)
5. Then: factory reset, reboot and all done
6. for Magisk you can unsecurize through phh settings
What is not working:
- can't get 5G, VoLTE and WiFi-Calling working (but I can live without it, because Samsung OneUI is too much overloaded for me)
- S-Pen: I never use it
- Zoom over 10x
- automatic brightness (I use velis autobrightness. Works perfect)
What could be better:
- haven't found a good GCAM yet. I use this one: GCAMGO_3.3.439_SHAMIM_V1.apk
- the sound is fine, but could be louder and more bass
Attached some screenshots and phh-settings

Video record sound is still broken?

yes, but the low exynos fix for exynos2100 ist still working

I have tried some gsi`s and this fix was not working

I've flashed this in twrp - maybe play with the "disable audio effects" in phh settings (samsung & misc). Mine are not checked and it's working

Thanks,will try

Excellent, thank you very much, were you able to test if Android Auto works in the car with the multimedia connected?

small research guys:
best of tested GSIs is now CRDROID, everything`s working and battery life is 9-10h SOT, with heaveier usage, no gaming, maybe it will be 12-13h, will report, but the most important, IDLE drain 0,5-0,8%/h,so over night i am loosing just 5-7%(8h of sleep)
I have also compared log errors in tested GSIs and CRDroid have just few sometimes, other GSIs were hot while using and charging or using on Sunlight.
What is not working on anz GSI is AUto brightness.
First started with:
SPARK OS - FP, face recogn working, battery good, gmail crashing
ARROW OS - no customization
AWAKEN OS - same as SPARK OS, Wodproof or maybe another apps cant connect with Google login
CORVUS - a lot of customization, GMaps not working, after 3-4 installations for few hours, in AA is overheating and discharging, not usable
SUPERIOR - not so much customizations as SPARKS or AWAKEN OS or CRDROID, PIN unlock only with OK button
CRDROID - for now best one.
Will test PE, Descendant and Statix soon.
if you have another Q, just ask.
PS: banking apps working on every GSI(magisk hide, safetynet fix, Zygisk).

this one:
Download GCam Mod for Samsung phones
Pixel Camera (a.k.a. Google Camera) is a camera app, which comes pre-loaded with Google Pixel smartphones. Introduced in April 2014, the Google Camera was supported by every Android smartphone running on Android 4.4+ and higher. But now, this app is exclusively available only for Google Pixel...

thanks!!!

Does anyone know if this process will work with the SM-S9080 (the unlockable snapdragon vers)? I have that phone in the mail as we speak, but the ability to run pure android on the Ultra is my dream device and I would turn around and grab the exynos version when I can.

sims functional on crdroid?

Work on Samsung S22? Not ultra

UPDATE: I would like to confirm that this process *does* work on the S9080 with the crdroid GSI and the snapdragon twrp. Sim card, Wifi, lte data, fingerprint, and front/rear camera work, but probably needs a modded g cam to get good quality photos.(which I have not tested any yet).
Obviously I will not flash any exynos specific mods
